		<title>Let&#8217;s talk about sex</title>
		<description><![CDATA[How&#8217;s that for a comeback?
I don&#8217;t talk about sex very often, at least not in relationship to my own personal self. To do so seems indiscreet, boastful, and, because of the unpleasant puritanical hangover to which women are still subjected&#8230;well, skanky. Women who talk about sex are obviously women who are having, or interested in [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=misedjj.wordpress.com&blog=416158&post=346&subd=misedjj&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>An Excerpt from My Three-Volume Memoir</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I believe it was John Adams who said, &#8220;The older I find myself growing, the greater I notice a fundamental flaw in human beings: namely, that I hate them.&#8221;
Actually, it wasn&#8217;t Adams who said that, it was me, just now, quoting an excerpt from my upcoming three-volume memoir, &#8220;Why the Girl Who Sits in Front [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=misedjj.wordpress.com&blog=416158&post=336&subd=misedjj&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Oh man you guys I am so excited</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been a geek all my life &#8211; it&#8217;s just well-hidden because I&#8217;m bad at video games and have highly developed social skills. I have a box of DC comics from the 60s in my room (Batman and Superman); I know Tolkien&#8217;s Elvish alphabet; I adore the original Star Wars trilogy and think it&#8217;s a [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=misedjj.wordpress.com&blog=416158&post=322&subd=misedjj&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Wait, we&#8217;ve had this controversy before</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was just listening to MSNBC out of corner of my ear, and I heard that there is some sort of Barbie controversy brewing. Apparently, people are upset that Barbie suddenly has tattoos.
To which I responded:
&#8220;Wait, this has happened already. What the hell?&#8221;
My mom: &#8220;No it hasn&#8217;t.&#8221;
Me (increasingly insistent): &#8220;Yes, it has. In 1999. Butterfly [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=misedjj.wordpress.com&blog=416158&post=315&subd=misedjj&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Well, at Least We Don&#8217;t Live in Australia: Thoughts on Abortion</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I woke up to the sound of a vibrating cell phone.
Since it only vibrated once, it was almost undoubtedly Calvin texting me. I figured this morning&#8217;s text would be something about the day-to-day operation of the Venn diagram that is our lives, pertaining to our plant or trip to the beach, but it was the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=misedjj.wordpress.com&blog=416158&post=271&subd=misedjj&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Teabagging John Adams: Or, a Brief List of Things About Which I Have Recently Become Enraged</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I haven&#8217;t blogged in a long time.
The Rick Steves thing doesn&#8217;t count, I phoned that in. But it&#8217;s just been that this last semester there hasn&#8217;t been that much to write about. Obama won the election; Sarah Palin was returned to the padded cell that is Alaska; John McCain seems to have rid himself of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=misedjj.wordpress.com&blog=416158&post=230&subd=misedjj&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>I Watched PBS Alot as a Kid</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hello, it is I, Rick Steves, your next best thing to a plane ticket. Actually, I&#8217;m even better, because your plane ticket cannot speak to you in a comforting midwestern  accent, nor can it wear huge 80s aviator glasses and plaid shirts.
Welcome! To Best of Travels in Europe: FRANCE. Please indulge in this montage of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=misedjj.wordpress.com&blog=416158&post=212&subd=misedjj&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Pinza and Martin in &#8220;South Pacific&#8221;

I&#8217;m sitting here listening to the Original Cast Recording (OCR) of South Pacific, and though my mind is occupied with its usual questions (why is &#8220;You Have To Be Carefully Taught&#8221; so senselessly jaunty?) I can&#8217;t concentrate on them, really, because I&#8217;m listening to Ezio Pinza belt out &#8220;This Nearly Was [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=misedjj.wordpress.com&blog=416158&post=158&subd=misedjj&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Couple Things</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In any relationship, it’s important to spend time together doing things you both enjoy – “Couple Things,” if you will.
Calvin and I like to paint Warhammer figurines, watch The West Wing, and yell at people on the internet.
Warhammer, for the uninitiated, is an addictive and expensive hobby which involves the acquisition and painting of small [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=misedjj.wordpress.com&blog=416158&post=112&subd=misedjj&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
